Inning Mercifully Over

Carlos Rodon for game 3.  There.

Well I guess it’s a good thing I went out and mowed rather than watching this.

You know nothing about him evidently and that's fine

Wrong.

We can still WIN we just need SCORE about 20 runs!

Game 3 has to be a bullpen day. Foster goes the first two and you take your chances.  No one else looks close to ready.

"Game 3". Thats cute

lol, you know Giolito is gonna get lit up

Correct. His ERA against .500+ teams is 4.66. He’s not as good as people think.

Well, on the plus side, we don’t have to play Cleveland.

If we make it to Game 3 in Minneapolis, temps in the 40s. Yay.

dude it makes no damn difference what team they play in the first rd, they're getting bounced 

this is the downside of a 60 game season, what you see after 60 might not be who they really are.  very mediocre SP, a very 1 dimensional offense outside of 2 guys, and a manager who has zero control of his clubhouse and doesn't know how to even write a fucking lineup card or use a bullpen 

This is an 82 or 83 win team at best

Pirates up 2-0. Yankees down 3-0. Jays tied at 1.

I can't disagree with you. Just pointing out it will be colder than the Sox on Thursday if we have to play them. Ha. 

Abreu works a leadoff walk. 

Holy crap is that pitcher Hugo Chavez bastard child

This team played better without RR in the building last night.  And  they come out sloppy as shit this afternoon in a huge game.  Tell me there’s no connection between those dots...

There’s no connection LOL 

Dallas Keuchel should be our game 1 starter. He actually steps it up against good teams and leaves abuse of AAAA teams to our so-called ace.

No doubt there.  Gio craps the bed against anyone not named Royals/Pirates/Tigers.

Robert making good contact again. 

Nice at bat Robert, finally something positive today. Keep it going Mazara!

btw, for the sox to hit 83 wins after going 35-25, they would need to go 

48-54

This team looks more 48-54 than 59-43 lol

Whatcha looking for Nomar??

82-83 win team that benefited tremendously from a shortened season and an expanded playoff seeding. Regardless, now the expectations have started and anything less than a repeat playoff appearance will be unacceptable.

Hahn has yet another tough offseason ahead of him. There needs to be quite a few upgrades (notably RF and in the starting rotation)
